e@syFile™ was designed to help taxpayers working with SARS to quickly, easily and conveniently manage their tax affairs.

Top Tip: Current information must always be backed-up on your computer prior to installing the latest version, as the installation may delete your current information. Any beta test version downloaded must be uninstalled prior to installing the latest version of e@syFile™.

The latest version of e@syFile™ must always be used as any information submitted to SARS using a previous version won’t be accepted. You will automatically be prompted to update when accessing e@syFile™ or visit eFiling to download the latest version.

Do I need to tick the Employment Tax Incentive (ETI) field when completing a certificate on e@syFile™ Employer?

The ETI field is only mandatory when you have claimed ETI for the specific employee.
A pop-up message will be shown, when manually capturing the certificate details for an employee who doesn't qualify for the ETI.

If you have claimed the Employment Tax Incentive (ETI), the SIC7 and the SEZ codes are mandatory and must be captured or included in your CSV import file, when completing the employee certificate details.
